As predicted; it took four counties to provide relocators into the city. It's been a long fall for a classic department. In the old days, BCFD could (and did) handle simultaneous fifth alarm jobs without breaking into a sweat. Corrections: Harford County...Baltimore County doesn't have a Truck...

Like a nice summer evening in the South Bronx Note: Engine 30, 21, 20, and 35 are closer than companies dispatched. Seems like Trucks 16 and 18 should be on the first or second alarm.

From Engine 50 to Engine 46 Engine 43 to Engine 57 Looks like they got the City emptied All they've got for relocations will be outside the city. Did that Battalion Chief actually park the red car in the collapse zone?

5,000 degree inferno! Eight inches shorter! Mensa level smart Eh, maybe some alcohol?? Having delt with personal injury lawyers for decades AND been up Tri City Beach Road to Beach City, I can easily see how the ancient Greeks found entertainment in tragedy.

It seems that a CAD box should be defined as a contiguous geographic area that has the same "running assignment" up to however many alarm levels are desired. The next issue is if you want to identify this box by the nearest fire house or nearest engine company. If BCFD is using the nearest...

At the risk of looking like I missed a stage of toilet training; Shouldn't this BCFD "Box" be 41-20?

What a first alarm assignment- Engine 53 and Truck 27 on the box! There's nothing else left in West Baltimore. What else was going on?

https://abc13.com/post/houston-fire-department-crews-battle-apartment-gulf-freeway-southeast/17587703/ What heat? It was raining off and on all day and only made it up to 94 degrees today . It was 101 degrees the last two days. I got 3.2 inches of rain (plus hail) last night in about 90...

At the time Engine 28 was at 604 East 11th, Ladder 11 at 742 East 5th, and Engine 11 at 437 East Houston Street.

This means little to me, but youse guys from Brooklyn might find this interesting. Tonight, Monday, at 10 p.m. PBS will televise the documentary Emergent City. The story revolves around the working-class enclave of Sunset Park and their fight against developers trying to rezone and "revitalize"...

One hundred years ago there, if you weren't standing on a pier, you were swimming in the Hudson.

Thanks Loo, I knew it was one those refinery fires in 1975. In the mid 1950's, my father worked at the Naval Air Material Command Center at Mustin Field in the Philadelphia Naval Base. Once in a while he would take me to work with him. I had a run of the place. They used to test the catapults...

Joe Rizzo's brother Frank, then the Mayor of Philadelphia, was on the scene of this fire also. When the place flashed over/ blew up, everyone took off running. One of the Mayor's bodyguards ran right over Frank, breaking his hip.

Go for the ACE! Special call Maryland Line or Parkton. Make it a five county/ two state response.

The third multiple alarm in the last five days: at 0301 this morning. Seems like the first due engine on the second alarm-Engine 63-on Will Clayton Parkway is at least 6 miles away. The rest of the second alarm assignment came from Porter FD on mutual aid. 101 and 103 are still out there. In...
